This article is from the Apple II Programming FAQ, by Jeff Hurlburt with numerous contributions by others.

013- Where can I find manuals and other resources for the CP/M operating system?

         These sites are imho the BEST sites for CP/M related downloads:

Dr. Tom's large Apple II CP/M collection on Asimov
See  A2.CPM. ...  stuff at ...
ftp://ftp.apple.asimov.net/pub/apple_II/unsorted/

Also, see other CP/M materials on Asimov:
ftp://ftp.apple.asimov.net/pub/apple_II/utility/

The CP/M ver 1.4 & 2.x Programmer's Reference Guide on Paul Schlyter's Apple II Stuff:

http://www.retroarchive.org/cpm/ .
 

     I've asked Michael Haardt, author of cpmtools, to incorporate
     some code changes that would allow his package to work on apple
     II cpm images (both in dos and prodos order).  This package
     allows one to manipulate cpm disk images - extract, copy, delete,
     etc, etc from a unix command line.  The latest version of
     cpmtools can now handle apple II cpm images.

The very latest cpmtools can be downloaded from

http://packages.debian.org/stable/otherosfs/cpmtools.html

With cpmtools, I've been able to create Apple II images with the generic software obtained from

http://www.retroarchive.org/cpm

and from the oakdale CP/M archives.  These images I've been able to
download to an Apple II via ADT without any problems.  I feel that
they would be of use to Apple II CP/M users.
